Wrote a #blog article about Linux and why everybody at Microsoft should be fired.

HEY! Tiktok.com is working again. Weird.
| #WeAreNatenom Just read your blog article and wondered about your words regarding Libreoffice and PDF.
I used the PDF-Export functionality in Libreoffice several times and I really like it.

@db_geek Oh nice, thank you. Will edit the article. That makes things a lot easier for me also.
@lcsoft420 Why are you recommending Psiphon for VPN? Does it have any favorable reviews?

@rspfau Mostly because it worked in China to get to garbage American social media. I'm gonna see if it works for the Tiktok website if it goes down tomorrow. Also it's just really small and it opens instantly.
EDIT: Also, I've only used it on Windows.
@rspfau Damn it, Psiphon not working for tiktok.com. Any good free VPN suggestions?
@lcsoft420 Honestly, Linux maintenance and improvement does not come for free.
It would be interesting to study the number of people getting paid to work on linux and through which means and how it varied, but Red Hat is a serious contributor in that area, for instance.
(Asahi Linux, is doing an amazing job, but they are being financially supported to do so by part of the community)
In the end, developers need feed themselves.
(The blog also makes claims a bit dubious about Mozilla, which hasn't been behaving in a stellar way recently).
@Sobex Linux and Mozilla are still non-profit, and still better than the paid alternatives.
